Anti-counterfeit Pharmaceutical Packaging Market: By Technology, Hologram, Security Inks and Coatings, Hologram, Mass Encoding, Security Printing and Graphics, Others), By Usage Feature, By Application, By End User, and Region Forecast 2020-2031
Anti-counterfeit Pharmaceutical Packaging Market size was valued at US$ 118.3 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 210.7 billion by 2031, growing at a significant CAGR of 8.6% from 2025-2031. Packaging is critical in a variety of industries, including food and pharmaceuticals. Counterfeits are unauthorized copies of a branded label that look exactly like the real thing. Counterfeit products are usually made with the intention of profiting from the counterfeited product's high value. Clothing, jewelry, pharmaceuticals, cigarettes, electrical equipment, and other items are examples of counterfeit goods. To avoid counterfeit items, it is critical to have secure packaging. Anti-counterfeiting packaging is a method of assigning secure packaging to a product in order to reduce counterfeiting and infringement. Companies are taking anti-counterfeiting procedures, which are assisting them in limiting revenue and loyalty losses due to counterfeiting. Counterfeiting is a huge issue in a variety of industries, but the pharmaceutical industry is particularly vulnerable due to the use of illicit and harmful chemicals in counterfeit pharmaceuticals.
Furthermore, counterfeiting causes a company's profitability to suffer as well as a loss of brand value. Anti-counterfeiting packaging is now being used by food and pharmaceutical firms to prevent duplication and ensure product safety. Other companies, in addition to food and pharmaceutical companies, are using anti-counterfeiting packaging to combat counterfeiting and ensure the security of their products.

The overall growth of the packaging sector is expected to drive market growth, fueled by increased demand for packaging products from the food & beverage, personal care, and pharmaceutical industries. Furthermore, with companies and governments all over the world implementing anti-counterfeiting campaigns to protect both brand image and consumer health, demand for anti-counterfeit packaging is likely to skyrocket throughout the forecast period. High setup and innovation expenses are necessary to create anti-counterfeit packaging, which deters both new entrants and potential clients from accepting anti-counterfeit solutions, limiting market growth. Furthermore, some existing technologies, such as barcodes and QR codes, are easy to reproduce or falsify without sufficient client awareness, limiting industry expansion.
